“Wait on the LORD…as you pray aloud the words of this Lazaroo:

“Let me go to the fields and pick up the leftover grain…”
(Ruth 2:2)

So humble, Jesus…

Ruth didn’t ask for the whole field
didn’t ask for heaping basketfuls of the choicest grain

all she wanted was the leftovers.

I know You’ve told me I don’t have because I don’t ask.
I know You like God-size prayers.

But You also reward the humble
the people who don’t think of themselves too highly.

Ruth asked for such a small thing

but I love that when she married Boaz

unassuming Ruth
became co-owner of the whole field.
